Seoul, Korea Timelapse in 4K! [2015]

Before my vacation, I knew nothing about making timelapse videos. Well, I just got back from my vacation and now I know how to take RAW photos from my Canon 6D and Panasonic GH4 then use Photomatix to convert into HDR then finally convert it into timelapse video using Adobe After Effects.

Indeed, this process is very time consuming but since I was on vacation and had a lot of free time, I figured it would be a great time to do all that. For my last timelapse video, I tried my best to maximized everything I’ve learned along the way, adding a few HDR timelapses into the video. I also found HDR didn’t work so well at night, it was better to just take RAW photos and post process the images.

This is probably my last timelapse video for awhile since it takes such a long time to make one. I used my Canon 6D and Panasonic GH4 to shoot 18,249 RAW photos (total of 358GB) over course of 7 days. Of course, rendering these RAW files into timelapse video took awhile too, roughly around one full day of work then also another day to edit them into a video in Premiere CC.

Overall, I am satisfied with my timelapse skills that I’ve learned in the last 4 weeks. I know I made a lot of mistakes (some of the footage have some exposure problems) but I think it will definitely improve over time. And yes, my future Android videos should have lots of timelapse, if you have some good ideas for that, don’t forget to let me know, thx!

Hi, I am a student in Korean.
I am preparing a team presentation and making an intro video.
So I need some clips about 30 seconds that is a scenery of busy people in Seoul.
When I found your video, I was very impressed!
Could I use your video?
Could you let me know its creative commons license?
the intro video of our team project is non commercial and we will list your homepage address
